In October 2018, Saint Lucia was shaken by the brutal murder of 42-year-old Kimberly De Leon, a public servant and devoted mother of two. Found shot in her own home, Kimberly’s death sparked suspicion, grief, and years of unanswered questions.

Despite early suspicions, legal battles, and even shocking revelations about missing evidence from police custody, no one has ever been charged with her murder. Six years later, Kimberly’s family continues their fight for justice, while the case highlights troubling issues within Saint Lucia’s justice system.

In this episode of Cries from the Caribbean, we look at Kimberly’s life, the night she was killed, and the painful aftermath that continues to haunt her loved ones.
